Brief about the Temple

        The temple walls look exposed  and the god can be seen between 2 trees in the  front. The side walls have tree trunks embedded into it. The temple is not cared for by the local people who have  maintained well  an amman temple in the vicinity. However , the locals remove the weeds and clean the temple area only to celebrate Sivarathri festival. 

Action:

         We have now identified an young lad named Abhimanyu who has agreed to do the daily pooja to the lord for a Monthly maintenance amount of Rs 500 which would be useful for the education of this boy and also take care of the temple.

  This temple is adopted by PWRM Association from April 2015 for conduct of daily pooja.
